Synopsis

Sowing And Reaping: Or What Will Come Of It is a book written by Mary Botham Howitt and was first published in 1844. The book is a collection of stories that teach moral lessons about the consequences of our actions. The title of the book is based on the biblical concept of sowing and reaping, which means that we will reap what we sow. The stories in the book are aimed at children and young adults and are written in a simple and easy-to-understand language. The stories are set in different times and places, and each one has a unique message that the readers can learn from. The book is divided into two parts. The first part contains stories about the consequences of bad behavior, such as lying, stealing, and cheating. The second part of the book contains stories about the rewards of good behavior, such as honesty, hard work, and kindness. The book is not just a collection of moral tales, but it also provides insights into the social and cultural norms of the time. It reflects the Victorian era's emphasis on morality and the importance of good behavior. Overall, Sowing And Reaping: Or What Will Come Of It is a timeless classic that teaches valuable lessons about the consequences of our actions.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Sixty years ago, a tall, gloomy house, of a very dingy, unpromising aspect, in Lincoln s Inn Fields, was inhabited by Thomas Durant, one of the most sagacious lawyers of the day. By birth he was a gentleman, the younger son of the Durants of Stanton-C ombe, an old, though decayed family, in the county of Durham. The family estate was greatly encumbered by debts and mortgages, and, owing to the sudden death of his father, he was left unprovided for. Edward, the elder son, took all, excepting the mothers jointure of three thousand pounds. The younger son was pennyless; and, as if to increase his difficulties, had been bred to no profession. In talents and temper the young men were as different as in fortune.
